Good Samaritan Turns Villain – Rapes Granny After Offering To Help

Police in Bulawayo a looking for a young man who allegedly raped a 62-year-old woman after volunteering to help her work in her field. The man who is yet to be identified raped the woman without protection but had to flee the scene after a passerby interrupted him. Bulawayo deputy police spokesperson Inspector Abednico Ncube told the Chronicle,

An unidentified suspect approached the elderly woman who was working alone in the fields at the far end of Cowdray Park suburb. He offered to help the woman weed her fields and she agreed, handing the young man a hoe.

After working for a short while, the Good Samaritan grabbed the woman from behind and allegedly pushed her to the ground. He raped her once without protection but while still in the act, he was disturbed by a passerby. The culprit ran away and disappeared in the bushes.

Criminals target people who are found alone in bushy areas and they rape or rob them. We, therefore, warn the public to guard their lives jealously by always moving in groups and avoiding being in the fields when it’s dark.
